District of Columbia Court of Appeals.

Decided February 26, 2009.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

William S. Bach, Washington, pro se.

Joseph N. Bowman, Assistant Bar Counsel, with whom Wallace E. Shipp, Jr., Bar Counsel, and Julia L. Porter, Senior Assistant Bar Counsel, were on the brief, for the Office of Bar Counsel.

Before REID, Associate Judge, and FERREN and FARRELL, Senior Judges.

FARRELL, Senior Judge:

Respondent, while serving as conservator for the estate of a 92-year-old woman, wrote himself a check from the estate for his services knowing that he was not authorized to do so without court approval, which he had not yet received. The Board on Professional Responsibility, in agreement with a Hearing Committee, concluded that this was intentional misappropriation of client funds and, accordingly, recommends that respondent be disbarred.
